Field notes
The interface separates image and video settings and offers size presets as well as custom limits. Image controls include crop shapes and exact dimensions; video controls cover trimming, format, rotation, and fixed-area masking. The page says working data remains in the browser tab and includes instructions for checking network traffic in developer tools. Its masking guidance distinguishes black boxes from blur and mosaic, noting that the latter may leave small text partly recoverable.
